The water ghost is coming!
The Night General roared, his voice hoarse and unpleasant.
Panda and I hurriedly prepared for battle, and walked to the side of the ship where General Night was and stood up. Looking down over the railing, we saw a dark river. The current here is still very fast, and you can hear the sound of the river......
Following General Night's guidance, we saw one or two small black dots on the river in the distance, and these black dots moved extremely fast, like lightning in the water, almost in the blink of an eye, and moved to the position below our ship in an instant!
It's indeed a water ghost, and these little black dots are all water ghosts.
And these are of course just the beginning, the huge ghost ship in the distance is still jumping down like dumplings. These water spirits don't look like they're all spirits, as they can make a splash when they fall into the water, which means that they must be half-spirits, half-physical structures in their current state.
Panda and I stood on the side of the boat and watched, and a rough count showed that there should have been six water ghosts at the beginning, and the number was average.
However, we have never fought against the water ghosts, and we don't know what the true strength of the water ghosts is. However, judging by the number of these water ghosts, their combat effectiveness should be limited. It is an unbreakable truth that the quantity is necessarily poor in quality.
At this moment, the old boatman came over with the two staff members who had a bad attitude, and all three of them seemed to be eager to help us defend against the water ghosts.
I asked them who had ever fought with the water ghosts and knew how effective they were. Are there any weaknesses?
The old boatman shook his head heavily, and said that he could not know their weaknesses, and that all those who had dealt with the water ghosts were dead, and there was no room left alive.
Since this is the case, then we are completely the first time that the big girl gets on the sedan chair, and we can only follow the feeling.
I can only boldly infer that the water ghost is similar to the fierce ghost. Therefore, I am afraid that these three boatmen will be bewitched by the devils, and when the time comes, they will fight back, and we will be attacked in the back.
Thinking of this, I slashed my fingers with the dagger and gently smeared the blood of the golden crow on the center of their eyebrows - this is the oldest method of guarding against ghosts, which was taught to me by Sister Rao when I was in Shanghai, and it is said that putting a vermilion dot on the center of my eyebrows can prevent ghosts from going on or demagoguery. That's why many children like to dot red dots on their eyebrows.
The three boatmen trusted us to be good at exorcism, so they were very cooperative and polite to us.
Seeing that the water ghosts by the river had begun to swim over, the one closest to us suddenly jumped and rose directly from the river!
His body was still wet with water, his body was full of green aquatic plants, his skin was similar to fish skin, it was dark and quite smooth, his eyes were green, fluorescent, hairless, the top of his head was bare, and he looked disgusting......
The water ghost jumped and stuck directly to the hull of the boat. The hull of the ship was made of smooth steel, but the water ghost seemed to have suction cups on its limbs, hands and feet, and it was just a collision that stuck to it at once. Then he began to climb upwards, but not very fast, and as he climbed he looked up at us, his expression hideous, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Seeing this scene in front of me, even if I was used to seeing powerful ghosts and demons, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
A young shipwright behind him couldn't bear such a terrifying scene, screamed, and fled towards the cabin......
Although the old boatman had seen the water ghost, perhaps because today's picture evoked his terrifying memories in the early years, seeing the water ghost gradually climb up, he was also a little breathless, and his face was pale!
I clenched the ancient sword in my hand and whispered to the panda: "These water ghosts are swimming from all sides of the ship, so we'd better divide our labor and ......."
The panda knew what I meant, and hurriedly headed for the other side. And the Night General's body shook, and the shadow under him gradually expanded, breaking away from the crow's body, and turning into the form of the Shadow Demon King, and said in a deep voice: "I'll go to the bow of the ship!" โ
The remaining young boatman was already frightened by the water ghosts in the river, but now he suddenly saw that the night general had changed from a crow to a demon-like figure, and he was even more startled, and sat on the ground with his butt, unable to pull it up.
The old captain trembled and took a cigarette in his mouth, trying to light it but couldn't light it...... It looks like I've been scared out of my mind.
It was too late, and the first water ghost was already rushing towards the railing. He saw me and seemed to know that I was a fierce enemy, but he was not afraid and wanted to kill me with his own impact.
I smiled coldly, handed out the ancient sword in my hand, and stabbed it hard at the water ghost's chin.
At this time, I noticed that the water ghost looked a bit like Gollum in the movie "The Lord of the Rings", with a large head, but a small body, and because his flesh had decayed, he only had a human skin similar to a fish's skin covering his bones.
The water ghost was stabbed by my sword, and his body shook, trying to attack me from under the sword. As soon as he shook like this, I immediately felt that his strength was so great that he could almost bend the ancient sword.
But I didn't give him a chance, the sword spit out, and a golden light bloomed directly on the sword, and with this golden light, the water ghost's body disappeared, leaving only a puddle of rotten meat and mud falling on the deck, exuding a disgusting smell like a stinky fish.
As I said before, this water spirit is not a pure spirit, but a "half-spirit", that is, a mixture of the characteristics of a spirit and a substance.
The Dao Xuan Technique in my Peachwood Sword can only solve the spirit part of its body, and the remaining entities will turn into rotten flesh and fall to the ground, unable to die, but this part of the body is no longer harmful.
When the two boatmen saw that I had really killed the water ghost with one sword, they instantly threw themselves to the ground with the five bodies they admired. The old boatmen were so grateful that I must bless their boatload.
I hurriedly agreed, but I actually felt guilty in my heart, in the final analysis, this matter may still be caused by me.
When Deng Yazhi asked me to come to the boat before, I realized that she would definitely do something to us on this boat. Of course, I still want to take advantage of Deng Yazhi's rash recklessness to trap the higher-ranking commander behind her, and this should be our best choice at that time. Unexpectedly, it backfired, Deng Yazhi's ambush tonight and last night's petty fight were not at the same level at all, and she actually invited a terrifying ghost ship tonight.
However, this ghost ship may not be Deng Yazhi's handiwork, looking at Deng Yazhi's level and realm, she may not be enough to drive such a huge team.
Seeing that the first water ghost was killed, the water ghosts behind him moved much slower.
I stepped on the railing with one leg and stood by the side of the boat with a horizontal sword, quite a bit of a one-man and a man who could not open it.
However, in the end, the number of these ghosts is still too large, and although the remaining water ghosts dare not come up alone, when they gather a certain number, they roar and rush towards me.
I hurriedly told the boatmen to hide behind me, and then stepped forward with my sword and fought the water spirits who tried to rush up from the front.
During the battle, I found that these water ghosts are a bit like beasts, and their IQ is not high, which is often referred to as "unopened intelligence", but they are quite savage, and their strength and destructive power are extremely amazing.
There are about seven or eight water spirits in front of me, and as soon as these water spirits collide with the ship, the ship starts to shake violently, which is very dangerous.
The water ghosts on the ghost boat in the distance are still jumping into the river, and if these water ghosts surround them and hit only one side, the ship may capsize...... That's not what we wanted.
I slashed the two more water spirits, and then turned back to the old boatman and said, "No, you must try to separate from the ghost ship now and sail out of here, or the water spirits will overturn the ship!" โ
The old shipwright hurriedly stumbled in the direction of the cockpit, and said as he ran: "Master, you hold on, you must hold on!" โ
However, my side was able to hold on, but there were too many water ghosts on the panda side, and he began to have problems.
The panda's deep voice came from behind me: "Yang Ye, there are too many of them on my side, it seems that two of them have already ...... Rushed in the direction of the cabin......"
I was shocked when I heard this, and I turned my head sharply, and sure enough, I saw two thin, dark figures at the entrance of the cabin.
Is it a water ghost? The cabin is full of passengers, and if the water ghosts enter, the consequences will be unimaginable!
